A staggering 15% reported they had experienced at least ten cyber incidents during the same period.

In addition, phishing and social engineering were the primary attack methods, with over 60% of companies saying they had been hit by a phishing attack in the last year.

As the cyber threat evolves, it is crucial to stay on top of it, building long-term initiatives and regularly updating recovery plans.”
